Hi! I haven't stayed at the Westin but the Ritz Carlton is amazing! The beds there have pillow type mattress'.
I'm sorry you had to deal with bloat too. It's horrible.
Cody was a ten year old golden retriever. He was my best boy. We opted not to have surgery because the odds were against him surviving it and we didn't want him to suffer needlessly. We now have two 1 year old goldens. I found a special bowl to use for their meals. It has three bars that come up in the middle. It slows them down because the have to eat around the bars. It works great. I also feed them twice a day instead of once a day. They always eat like it's their last meal! Samson is now 103lbs! He's not overweight, just big!
If you are interested in the bowl, I can find out who makes it! Take care, Marianne
